Stat and workout check

At the moment would I say that my very best drives is about 270 yards while the less good ones are about 240 yards. When I really pound the ball I am about the 270 yards that I want to be consistent at. What I want is to be consistent on +270 yards.

I don't really know what my swingspeed with my driver is but I know that my irons are about 86-89 Mph

My equipment is a Callaway FT-I Tour model with 9.5* loft and a stiff tourflex.

For the next following weeks in the gym will I focus on strenght training. I will follow this program:

Monday: Upper Body
Bench Press: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Bent Over Row: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Dumbbell Shoulder Press: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Bicep Curl: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Rope Tricep Pull-downs: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions

Tuesday: Lower Body
Front Squat: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Deadlift: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Lunges: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Hamstring Curl: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Standing Calf Raises: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions

Thursday: Upper Body
Incline Bench Press: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Lat Pull-down: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Barbell Shoulder Press: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Front Lateral Raises: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Dips: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions

Friday: Lower Body
Back Squat: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
Stiff-Legged Deadlift: 4 sets of 6-8 repetitions
One-Legged Squats/Leg Press: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Hamstring Curl: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions
Seated Calf Raises: 3 sets of 10-12 repetitions

Except for this will I end all sessions with excercises that are similar to the motions in the golfswing. Example pulling ropes with light weights. I will not forget to workout my abs but this part of the body will be worked on 3 days a week. After every session will I also swing with one or several golfclubs to make the muscles become used to the swingmotion.

Here is a video where I'm just trying to hit it as far as I can. It ended up at about 275 yards. Balance isnt the best here but I was just looking for distance at this moment.
